Device-defined data types (5069-IF8)

Device-defined data types (5069-IF8)

Device-defined data type names vary for each device depending on selections made when the device was created.
These tables list and describe device-defined data types for the 5069-IF8 devices.
These tables include information for:
  • input (as indicated by an "I")
  • output (as indicated by an "O")
  • configuration (as indicated by a "C")

Valid Values
RunMode
BOOL
Decimal
0 = Idle
1 = Run
  • Output products follow the Run mode of the owning connection.
  • Input-only products are always in Run mode.

A fault is a roll-up of all of the diagnostic conditions that the device can detect and indicates bad data. If there is a detailed data type member that indicates a given detected condition, this fault member does not affect the DiagnosticActive or DiagnosticSequenceCount members. However, if there is no detailed data type for a given detected condition, this fault member triggers both the DiagnosticActive member and increments/decrements the Diagnostic Sequence Count.
